Genetic Structure of IDDM1: Two Separate Regions in the Major Histocompatibility Complex Contribute to Susceptibility or Protection

Abstract: We analyzed 11 markers in the IDDM1 region in 120 IDDM patients and 83 healthy control subjects who were fully matched for the highest risk HLA-DQA1*0301-DQB1 *0302/DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201 genotype. Our study provides strong evidence that two regions in the major histocompatibility complex contribute to IDDM susceptibility or protection. First, despite selection for highest IDDM-associated risk DQ genotypes, this region displays extensive linkage disequilibrium (LD) differences between IDDM patients and control su… Show more

“…We were not able to confirm the existence of relatively frequent DQB1*02-DRB1*03-D6S273, and DQB1*0302-DRB1*0401-D6S273 haplotypes that are associated with type 1 diabetes as reported in a Belgian case control study (Moghaddam et al 1998). Strong linkage disequilibrium was found, with D6S273*8 (140 bp) being predominantly present on both transmitted and non-transmitted DQ*02-DR*03 haplotypes, and D6S273*6 (136 bp) on DQ*0302-DR*0401 haplotypes.…”

“…In contrast, one case-control study of Belgian subjects matched for the high risk DQB1-DRB1 genotype reports an additional effect of the TNF region by analysing extended HLA-DQB1-DRB1 haplotypes with the microsatellite marker D6S273, which is located 130 kb centromeric of the TNF locus (Moggadaham et al 1998). More recently, Lie et al (1999) reported a trend of association at D6S273 using the Homozygous Parent Test, but the effect was not consistent with the D6S273 alleles implicated in the study of Moghaddam et al (1998).…”

“…10 Over the last years, a large body of evidence has accumulated, suggesting the presence of at least a second T1D locus (and another CD-associated gene) within or close to the MHC, and markers located within the HLA class II, III and I regions, as well as the extended class I region have been shown to influence the genetic susceptibility of developing T1D. [11][12][13][14][15][16] A recent report suggests that DR3-B8 does not confer increased risk to T1D compared to other less conserved DR3 chromosomes, 17 but, in contrast, there is evidence supporting a stronger contribution of DR3-B18 to the genetic susceptibility to T1D; indeed, several predisposing alleles of these HLA class II-independent genes are present in the DR3-B18 haplotype. 14,16 It can be inferred that particular DR3 CEHs carrying different variants of these riskmodifying genes would contribute unequally to the risk of developing one or another autoimmune disorders.…”

“…Nevertheless, the population frequency of DR3/4 genotype is still 10-20 times higher than the prevalence of type 1 diabetes associated with this genotype (1,7). DRB1 subtyping might change the risk of type 1 diabetes in the DQ high-risk population, even though it is assumed to be accounted for only 10% (7,8).…”
